The first time Chris Lytle met Matt Brown, he submitted Brown in the second round. Lytle looked to repeat that very same finish in the UFC rematch.
The first round unfolded much slower than what might have been expected from these two on paper. They traded power shots on the feet, but most of the fight was spent on the ground or in the clinch. Brown locked on a D'arce choke toward the end of the round, but it never looked fully applied and Lytle escaped after some patient moments.
The two picked up where they left off in the second frame. This time, however, Lytle found himself mounted on top of Brown. It looked like he would finish the bout exactly like their first with a mounted guillotine.
Lytle lost the position, though Brown found himself trapped in a reverse triangle from mount. With Brown's right arm isolated, Lytle worked for a finish, eventually securing a straight armbar submission.

WTF?
Dude. It's Anderson Silva.
If he gives a damn he will end Sonnen’s night by either sub or KO.

By Monday morning Chael Sonnen will be pissing out of his neck.

I don’t know about him getting a title shot anytime soon but Lytle is a warrior and is actually well rounded. Maybe now that he’s gotten a couple in a row he can get a big name to see where he is in the stacked WW division.

The Peter Schiff shoutout made my night.
It was so random, i love it. Do the right thing Connecticut!
Has anyone mentioned
that this is the 2nd time Lytle has finished someone with that reverse triangle/armlock combo? He used the same move on Jason Gilliam at UFC 73.
Whoops, my bad
I didn’t watch the interview.
You can tell that’s one of his bread-and-butter subs though…he barely spent two seconds in full mount before hopping over into side control and locking up that triangle.
